“Popular” doesn’t mean worthwhile.

But you not liking something doesn't make it unworthwhile. There are plenty of people who do like it, and it's worthwhile to them.

I'm one of them. Stop trying to force your opinions on me.

He's just posting his opinion, you don't have to read it.

Something not being rooted in objective facts does make it unworthwhile though. A personal opinion on a <> is irrelevant; factual information is relevant. The source that you keep insisting has value does not use objectively correct, verifiable, factual information. Since there's no accurate information coming from the source, what, exactly, is the value proposition that it offers?

So, despite being entirely devoid of any factual information--and actually being deceptive--you like it because it validates your emotions? Is that correct?

Seems to me that I remember a certain conservative icon saying something about, "facts don't care about your feelings".
